Cyfronydd Hall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cyfronydd Hall from Lower Bryn Elen

Cyfronydd Hall is a Welsh country house located on the A458 road between Welshpool and the hamlet of Cyfronydd, Llanfair Caereinion. It was built in about 1865 for the Pryce Jones family after an earlier hall on the site burned down. It once formed part of the 1,922-acre (778 ha) Cyfronydd Estate.

Cyfronydd Hall was sold by Major Hamilton Pryce in 1927 and at that time it had 19 bedrooms and one bathroom. In 1938 it was purchased for £7,250 by Montgomeryshire County Council for use as a girls' school and remodelled,[1] with the number of bedrooms being reduced to 14 and the number of bathrooms increased to four. The property at that time had 44 acres (18 ha) of land.

In the 1990s the property was bought by an English couple who gradually repaired and improved the property over a ten-year period. They added a swimming pool and a spa and sold the property in 2015 to William Hague and Ffion Hague. The estate now has 12.7 acres (5.1 ha). [2]
